Hello,

Manila VO is known to be slower than other offices.

I guess you will just have to wait now for updates.

Hope you get contacted soon with an update!

We received PPR email on Feb 7, submitted passports on Feb 10. Received by Ndvo on Feb 11 and status is in processing at IRCC from Feb 12. Still no update yet. I already booked tickets on Mar 1. Hoping get it early next week. @KosVin did you submit your passport and any update?

Regarding COPR, yes they send it along with the stamped passport
Hope you've received it by now?
I'm still waiting for mine. VFS office informed they take 10 calendar days minimum from date of receipt.

Hello!
One question:
I received a Final request for police certificates (multiple). My husband has only ever lived for longer than 6 months in Mexico and in Canada. Do I have to provide the Canadian? or just the Mexican? I was only aware that the Canadian is upon a specific request. Does anyone know? Thanks!

Were you not required to send it with the additional package? If they don’t have a Mexican police certificate from you yet then yes you have to send it.

Hello!
No, it stated that I needed to provide it after I submitted the application, that’s why we didn’t. But since my husband was a worker in Canada for 2 years, I am unsure that the “multiple” part means the Canadian as well...

Normally they do the Canadian side on their own unless they specifically request something from you. You can always inquire, but for sure you need to send the Mexican one.

We only sent the New Zealand one with our initial application and they took care of the Canadian side, but our country specific requirements are different, so I don’t want to assume either.

Did they not state exactly what they expected you to send?

This is what I got:
“Police Certificates (Multiple): Please provide a police certificate from the country where you currently live, if you have lived there for six months or more; and the country where you’ve spent most of your adult life since the age of 18. You are required to obtain a Police Certificate from that country’s law enforcement authorities. Please send the original police certificate to this office as soon as you receive it. If your police certificate indicates any charges and/or convictions, you must also provide court documents detailing the disposition of each charge and the sentence of each conviction. This must be received at this office by: 2020/03/28”

I believe is only the Mexican as well... I hope so though!

Is this what you got in the letter ?
